.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/param.h
|
|
.In sys/mount.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn mount "const char *type" "const char *dir" "int flags" "void *data"
|

.In sys/uio.h

.Fn nmount "struct iovec *iov" "u_int niov" "int flags"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn mount
|
|
system call grafts
|
|
a file system object onto the system file tree
|
|
at the point
|
|
.Fa dir .
|
|
The argument
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
describes the file system object to be mounted.
|
|
The argument
|
|
.Fa type
|
|
tells the kernel how to interpret
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
(See
|
|
.Fa type
|
|
below).
|
|
The contents of the file system
|
|
become available through the new mount point
|
|
.Fa dir .
|
|
Any files in
|
|
.Fa dir
|
|
at the time
|
|
of a successful mount are swept under the carpet so to speak, and
|
|
are unavailable until the file system is unmounted.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn nmount
|
|
system call behaves similarly to
|
|
.Fn mount ,
|
|
except that the mount options (filesystem type name, device to mount,
|
|
mount-point name, etc.) are passed as an array of name-value pairs
|
|
in the array
|
|
.Fa iov ,
|
|
containing
|
|
.Fa niov
|
|
elements.
|
|
The following options are required by all filesystems:
|
|
.Bl -item -offset indent -compact
|
|
.It
|
|
.Li fstype Ta filesystem type name (e.g. Dq Li procfs )
|
|
.It
|
|
.Li fspath Ta mount point pathname (e.g. Dq Li /proc )
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Depending on the filesystem type, other options may be
|
|
recognized or required;
|
|
for example, most disk-based filesystems require a
|
|
.Dq Li from
|
|
option containing the pathname of a special device
|
|
in addition to the options listed above.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default only the super-user may call the
|
|
.Fn mount
|
|
system call.
|
|
This restriction can be removed by setting the
|
|
.Va vfs.usermount
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable
|
|
to a non-zero value.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following
|
|
.Fa flags
|
|
may be specified to
|
|
suppress default semantics which affect file system access.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width MNT_SYNCHRONOUS
|
|
.It Dv MNT_RDONLY
|
|
The file system should be treated as read-only;
|
|
even the super-user may not write on it.
|
|
Specifying MNT_UPDATE without this option will upgrade
|
|
a read-only file system to read/write.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_NOEXEC
|
|
Do not allow files to be executed from the file system.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_NOSUID
|
|
Do not honor setuid or setgid bits on files when executing them.
|
|
This flag is set automatically when the caller is not the super-user.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_NOATIME
|
|
Disable update of file access times.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_NODEV
|
|
Do not interpret special files on the file system.
|
|
This flag is set automatically when the caller is not the super-user.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_SUIDDIR
|
|
Directories with the SUID bit set chown new files to their own owner.
|
|
This flag requires the SUIDDIR option to have been compiled into the kernel
|
|
to have any effect.
|
|
See the
|
|
.Xr mount 8
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr chmod 2
|
|
pages for more information.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_SYNCHRONOUS
|
|
All I/O to the file system should be done synchronously.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_ASYNC
|
|
All I/O to the file system should be done asynchronously.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_FORCE
|
|
Force a read-write mount even if the file system appears to be unclean.
|
|
Dangerous.
|
|
Together with
|
|
.Dv MNT_UPDATE
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv MNT_RDONLY ,
|
|
specify that the file system is to be forcibly downgraded to a read-only
|
|
mount even if some files are open for writing.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_NOCLUSTERR
|
|
Disable read clustering.
|
|
.It Dv MNT_NOCLUSTERW
|
|
Disable write clustering.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The flag
|
|
.Dv MNT_UPDATE
|
|
indicates that the mount command is being applied
|
|
to an already mounted file system.
|
|
This allows the mount flags to be changed without requiring
|
|
that the file system be unmounted and remounted.
|
|
Some file systems may not allow all flags to be changed.
|
|
For example,
|
|
many file systems will not allow a change from read-write to read-only.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The flag
|
|
.Dv MNT_RELOAD
|
|
causes the vfs subsystem to update its data structures pertaining to
|
|
the specified already mounted file system.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa type
|
|
argument names the file system.
|
|
The types of file systems known to the system can be obtained with
|
|
.Xr lsvfs 1 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
argument
|
|
is a pointer to a structure that contains the type
|
|
specific arguments to mount.
|
|
The format for these argument structures is described in the
|
|
manual page for each file system.
|
|
By convention file system manual pages are named
|
|
by prefixing ``mount_'' to the name of the file system as returned by
|
|
.Xr lsvfs 1 .
|
|
Thus the
|
|
.Tn NFS
|
|
file system is described by the
|
|
.Xr mount_nfs 8
|
|
manual page.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn unmount
|
|
system call disassociates the file system from the specified
|
|
mount point
|
|
.Fa dir .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa flags
|
|
argument may include
|
|
.Dv MNT_FORCE
|
|
to specify that the file system should be forcibly unmounted
|
|
even if files are still active.
|
|
Active special devices continue to work,
|
|
but any further accesses to any other active files result in errors
|
|
even if the file system is later remounted.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Dv MNT_BYFSID
|
|
flag is specified,
|
|
.Fa dir
|
|
should instead be a file system ID encoded as
|
|
.Dq Li FSID : Ns Ar val0 : Ns Ar val1 ,
|
|
where
|
|
.Ar val0
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar val1
|
|
are the contents of the
|
|
.Vt fsid_t
|
|
.Va val[]
|
|
array in decimal.
|
|
The file system that has the specified file system ID will be unmounted.
